I'm in a very "what extras can I do to make this happen?" phase. ✨️🕯🤞

Anyone know of any events happening soon with pitch to editor opportunities?

A few months ago, the thought would have terrified me, and now I'm like, "Let's freaking do this!" 👊

Comet is tired of taking a backseat to Rudy.🦌 He wants to guide the sleigh and be in the spotlight for once! 🔦

When his sneaky plan actually works, Comet gets everything he wished for! 🛷

Too Many Zombies in the Kitchen. Where seasonings go shake shake poof, pots go bubble bubble bang. And bones go crack, crack, crumble. Coming soon to a publishing house near you! Family, self-discovery, dark humor, persistence. A picture book by nicole garnett

Brainy Brenda loves to cook. But today is Gramma McBrains' 612th bday, and Mama says, “Only adults in the kitchen.” 😒

When Brainy Brenda decides to go AGAINST the adult's wishes, she hears the same phrase, “TOO MANY ZOMBIES IN THE KITCHEN!”
👀🫣🧟‍♀️🍽🧟‍♂️
